This past weekend a tragic shooting in our Compton This past weekend a tragic shooting in our Compton community claimed the lives of beloved residents. Today, I adjourned in memory of Eric Washington and Meah Bordenave-Jenkin, community members whose lives were taken too soon on July 4.   Eric Washington – a devoted son, brother, and friend passed away at the age of 37. Eric dedicated his life to public service, community engagement, and uplifting others. Through his work with the office of Assemblymember Mike Gipson, the Watts Gang Task Force, and most recently the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles, Eric created opportunities and strengthened the communities he cared deeply about.   Meah Bordenave-Jenkins was a bright 19-year-old with a passion for helping others. As a student at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, she was pursuing her dream of becoming a neonatal travel nurse—a reflection of her compassion and commitment to caring for others.   I also acknowledged the passing of Thaddeus Clark, a 38-year-old man whose life was also taken at a different shooting that also happened this past weekend.   We extend our deepest condolences to the families, friends, and loved ones of Eric, Meah and Thaddeus during this unimaginable time of grief.   Anyone with information related to these tragic incidents is urged to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau at (323) 890-5500. Anonymous tips may be submitted through Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-TIPS.
Today, we took an important step to uphold the wil Today, we took an important step to uphold the will of the voters and preserve Measure J in the County Charter as the County’s new governance structure is implemented.   Measure J’s commitment to community investment and alternatives to incarceration was overwhelmingly supported by voters and should have never been put at risk by an administrative error.   Today’s action helps ensure that promise remains intact.   Thank you to the Reimagine LA Coalition, and all the advocates, families, and community partners who shared their support; and to Supervisor Horvath for co-authoring.   The work continues as the proposed Charter amendment come to the Board later this month.
Conversations about expanding access to affordable Conversations about expanding access to affordable housing can often become polarizing. Thank you to everyone who came to share public comment on our motion to create more equitable opportunities for communities to purchase rental properties. As I said during today’s Board meeting, I encourage you to have conversations with someone whose perspective differs from your own. I take seriously the concerns of both renters and mom-and-pop landlords in my district because both lived experiences are essential to creating thoughtful solutions that help keep residents housed and our communities whole.
Housing stability requires us to think differently Housing stability requires us to think differently about how we prevent displacement and preserve affordability for residents.   Today, the Board approved a motion I co-authored with Chair Solis to get us closer toward creating a Community Opportunity to Purchase Act (COPA) Program for unincorporated LA County.   COPA creates a fair and transparent process that gives mission-driven affordable housing organizations the opportunity to purchase rental properties when they’re put up for sale—helping to keep residents housed, support mom and pop landlord, and keep communities intact.   I look forward to continuing to work with stakeholders as the County develops this program and returns with a draft ordinance in the months ahead.

Seven years ago today, alongside a coalition of ad Seven years ago today, alongside a coalition of advocates, I authored the CROWN Act, which was signed into law by Governor Newsom, making California the first state in the nation to pass this groundbreaking anti-discrimination legislation. We took a stand and wrote the CROWN Act to affirm what we already knew: our hair is not a barrier—it is culture, identity, and power. Today, I'm proud of how far this movement has come. Since California enacted the CROWN Act in 2019, it has become law in 30 states, helping to protect people from race-based hair discrimination. Happy National CROWN Day! I encourage you to stay connected with the CROWN Act Coalition at TheCROWNAct.com. #NationalCROWNDay #CROWNLove #TheCROWNAct
